Management of Bone Sarcoma Management of Bone Sarcoma a b c,d, Christina J. Gutowski, MD , Atrayee Basu-Mallick, MD , John A. Abraham, MD * KEYWORDS Bone sarcoma Osteosarcoma Ewing sarcoma Chondrosarcoma Endoprosthetic reconstruction KEY POINTS Advancements in chemotherapy have been the primary reason for improvements in sur- vival from bone sarcoma in the past 20 years. There are currently no chemotherapy agents effective against conventional chondrosarcoma. Local recurrence of bone sarcoma is likely related to aggressive tumor biology, but rela- tionship with survival is not fully understood. Multiple methods of reconstruction after bone sarcoma resection are available, each with its own benefits and drawbacks. Emerging technologies, such as computer-aided surgery, improved imaging, and improved implant design, have potential to improve results of treatment even further in the future. INTRODUCTION Incidence and Epidemiology Bone sarcomas account for approximately 0.2% of new cancer cases in the United States each year. The vast majority of these are either osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma, or chondrosarcoma. In 2016, it is estimated that 3300 new cases will be diagnosed; this incidence has been rising on average 0.4% annually over the past decade.1 More than 27% of new diagnoses are made in patients younger than 20 years; osteosarcoma spe- cifically is reported to be the third most common cancer in adolescence, and eighth We have no funding sources, or commercial/financial conflicts of interest to disclose. a Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson Uni- versity, 1025 Walnut Street, Room 516 College, Philadelphia, PA 19107, USA; b Department of Medical Oncology, Sarcoma and Bone Tumor Center at Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center, Thomas Jefferson University Hospital, 1025 Walnut Street, Suite 700, Philadelphia, PA 19107; c Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Rothman Institute at Jefferson University Hospital, 925 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 19107, USA; d Department of Surgical Oncology, Fox Chase Cancer Center, 333 Cottman Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19111, USA * Corresponding author.

In 2015, cause-specific 10-year survival for patients with localized disease at the time of osteosarcoma diagnosis was 65.8%.4 Metastatic disease at presentation, which is seen in approximately 24% of patients, lowers this survival rate to 24%.4,5 Despite improvement in survival of localized disease with modern management, patients with recurrence or metastasis after initial treatment is still associated with a poor prognosis. Pretreatment Evaluation and Staging The goal of the preoperative evaluation is to determine the extent of the disease, and allow for optimum treatment planning. Local imaging usually includes orthogonal plain radiographs and MRI of the affected area (Figs. 1 and 2). Computed tomography (CT) scan may be helpful in identifying cortical involvement. Imaging of the entire affected bone should be included to identify any skip metastases, the presence of which worsens prognosis.6 Evaluation of distant disease is done by using chest CT scan to evaluate for pulmo- nary metastasis, and Technicium-99 whole-body bone scan and/or PET with fludeox- yglucose F 18 (F18-FDG PET)/CT to evaluate for bony metastases7,8 (Fig. 3). Recent studies have demonstrated that PET/CT is more sensitive than bone scan for detect- ing metastatic bone lesions, while specificity and diagnostic accuracy were similar. The combination of bone scan and PET/CT provides the highest sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy, but this must be balanced with the additional cost. PET/CT scan may have the additional benefit of demonstrating correlation with the aggressive- ness of a bone lesion, although is not completely reliable for this purpose.9,10 Once biopsy is completed, various staging systems exist. The American Joint Com- mittee on Cancer (AJCC) is most commonly used. For bone sarcoma specifically, an alternative system frequently used is the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) sys- tem, described by Enneking in 198011 (Tables 1 and 2). Biopsy When performed appropriately, diagnostic accuracy of surgical incisional biopsy has been shown to be 98%,12 and as such, surgical biopsy is the preferred method of Fig. 1.

However, from a technical standpoint, open biopsy is associated with a complication rate of 16% and therefore must be per- formed by an experienced center. Mankin and colleagues13,14 demonstrated that biopsy-related problems occurred with 3 to 5 times greater frequency at centers inex- perienced with sarcoma treatment, when compared with sarcoma treatment centers. Several principles to minimize risk of contamination and complication while maintain- ing adequate yield and accuracy have been described (Box 1). Currently, percuta- neous needle biopsy has replaced open surgical biopsy in most experienced centers as the primary method of biopsy due to low complication rate and a high level Fig. 3.

Percutaneous needle biopsy With complication rates of approximately 1%, percutaneous needle biopsy with or without image guidance represents a safe, cost-effective, minimally invasive alterna- tive to surgical biopsy.16–19 Diagnostic accuracy rates range from 74% to 93% when imaging modalities are used.19–21 Major disadvantages of needle biopsies, in general, relate to the small amount of tissue obtained, and the potential for sampling error. For these reasons, fine needle aspirate (FNA) is usually insufficient for primary bone sarcoma. However, core needle biopsy (CNB) has consistently been shown to facili- tate accurate histopathologic interpretation and achieve favorable patient out- comes.17,19,22 The difference in hospital charges associated with percutaneous biopsies and open biopsies was found to be approximately $6000.23 Furthermore, recent data suggest that seeding of the needle biopsy tract may not occur as it does in open surgical biopsy.24 Many studies have attempted to identify risk factors for poor diagnostic capability or patient outcome after CNB. Increased sensitivity, diagnostic accuracy, and ability to differentiate between benign and malignant lesions are seen in needle biopsy of bone sarcomas compared with soft tissue sarcomas.17,21,23 In general, malignant bone tumors are associated with higher diagnostic yield than benign lesions.24,25 Biopsies of necrotic areas of a tumor are likely to produce nondiagnostic tissue, so im- age guidance is critical in determining the optimal target of the biopsy needle.

  • Sclerostin Inhibition Alleviates Breast Cancer–Induced Bone Metastases and Muscle Weakness
    Sclerostin inhibition alleviates breast cancer–induced bone metastases and muscle weakness Eric Hesse, … , Hiroaki Saito, Hanna Taipaleenmäki JCI Insight. 2019. https://doi.org/10.1172/jci.insight.125543. Research In-Press Preview Bone biology Oncology Breast cancer bone metastases often cause a debilitating non-curable condition with osteolytic lesions, muscle weakness and a high mortality. Current treatment comprises chemotherapy, irradiation, surgery and anti-resorptive drugs that restrict but do not revert bone destruction. In metastatic breast cancer cells, we determined the expression of sclerostin, a soluble Wnt inhibitor that represses osteoblast differentiation and bone formation. In mice with breast cancer bone metastases, pharmacological inhibition of sclerostin using an anti-sclerostin antibody (Scl-Ab) reduced metastases without tumor cell dissemination to other distant sites. Sclerostin inhibition prevented the cancer-induced bone destruction by augmenting osteoblast-mediated bone formation and reducing osteoclast-dependent bone resorption. During advanced disease, NF-κB and p38 signaling was increased in muscles in a TGF-β1-dependent manner, causing muscle fiber atrophy, muscle weakness and tissue regeneration with an increase in Pax7-positive satellite cells. Scl-Ab treatment restored NF-κB and p38 signaling, the abundance of Pax7-positive cells and ultimately muscle function. These effects improved the overall health condition and expanded the life span of cancer-bearing mice. Together, these results demonstrate that pharmacological

To understand bone cancer, it helps to know a little about normal bone tissue. Bone is the supporting framework for your body. The hard, outer layer of bones is made of compact (cortical) bone, which covers the lighter spongy (trabecular) bone inside. The outside of the bone is covered with fibrous tissue called periosteum. Some bones have a space inside called the medullary cavity, which contains the soft, spongy tissue called bone marrow(discussed below).

Conventional Chondrosarcoma is the most common type of chondrosarcoma (malignant cartilage tumor) Neoplastic cells form hyaline type cartilage or chondroid type tissue (Chondroid Matrix) but not osteoid If lesion arises de novo, it is a primary chondrosarcoma If superimposed on a preexisting benign neoplasm, it is considered a secondary chondrosarcoma Central chondrosarcomas arise from an intramedullary location. They may grow, destroy the cortex and form a soft tissue component. Peripheral chondrosarcomas extend outward from the cortex of the bone and can invade the medullary cavity. Peripheral chondrosarcomas most commonly arise from preexisting osteochondromas. Juxtacortical chondrosarcomas arise from the inner layer of the periosteum on the surface of the bone. It is technically considered a peripheral chondrosarcoma. Chondrosarcoma Heterogeneous group of tumors with varying biological behavior depending on grade, size and location Cartilage tumors can have similar histology and behave differently depending on location. For instance a histologically benign appearing cartilage tumor in the pelvis will behave aggressively as a low grade chondrosarcoma. Likewise, a histologically more aggressive hypercellular cartilag e tumor localized in a p halanx of a dig it may behave in an indolent, non aggressive or benign manner. There are low (grade I), intermediate (grade II) and high grade (grade III) types of conventional chondrosarcoma. Low grade lesions are slow growing and rarely metastasize . Low grade chondrosarcomas can be difficult to differentiate from benign tumors histologically. Clinical features and radiographic studies are important to help differentiate.

Material and Method: A retrospective study of the 1,001 bone tumor specimens from the files at the Pathology Department of the Chiang Mai University Hospital, Thailand from 2000 to 2004. Results: From the study, 41 were non-neoplastic mass lesions, and 960 were neoplastic, with 856 (89%) as primary and 104 (11%) as metastatic tumors. In the primary tumor group, 654 (76%) cases were of hemato- logic origin, and 202 (24%) were non-hematologic. The most common benign bone tumors were giant cell tumor (n = 37), osteochondroma (n = 25), and chondroma (n = 15). The most common malignant bone tumors were lymphoma-leukemia (n = 583), metastatic malignancy (n = 104), plasma cell myeloma (n = 71), and osteosarcoma (n = 58). Conclusion: The present study showed a higher frequency of osteosarcoma (68%), lower frequencies of chondrosarcoma (12%) and Ewing sarcoma (4%) among primary non-hematologic malignant bone tumors when compared with similar studies based on Western patients. Whether these differences reflect differences in the ethnic population or in practice patterns remains to be determined.
